About The Valens Clinic
The name “Valens” is derived from Latin, meaning “strong and healthy” — a promise reflected in care that combines clinical excellence with genuine humanity.
Our story
The Valens Clinic is a state of the art mental health clinic in Dubai. Since opening in 2023, it has been offering specialized psychiatric and psychological care, supported by a wide range of integrated wellness and corporate services.
What began as a small, dedicated team has grown into a comprehensive mental health polyclinic delivering holistic care for all emotional, psychological, and behavioral needs through a highly collaborative, multidisciplinary approach.
How Valens began
The Valens Clinic was founded by Joseph El Khoury, Ziad Ghosn, and Rama Kanj, combining a passion for healthcare with advanced clinical expertise and strong strategic and operational leadership.
As The Valens Clinic developed, Sarah Siddiqui joined as Managing Director, bringing focused leadership to optimize operations, scale services, and support expansion into specialized offerings such as Young Valens, a branch dedicated to the emotional and psychological wellbeing of children and adolescents.
